A while back I bought a Sony Vaio desktop (the one with all the gubbins in the monitor case) and generally I'm happy with the performance.
When I shut it down it hangs for several minutes with "waiting for background programmes to close - force shut-down yes / no"
Any ideas what could be running please as I have never had any of this wth previous PC's or laptops.
I've dumped a load of Sony bloat-ware and other pre-installed junk, but I can't figure out what could be taking so long to close as I close all programmes ( Thunderbird, IE, Word, etc.) before shutting down.
Thanks in advance
